Foreign direct investment, mining, infrastructure spending, and, more recently, strong fiscal and monetary stimulus measures have driven much of this growth. The country now faces challenges in terms of creating jobs without overly relying on public spending fueled by natural resource exploitation. In 2014, the Mongolian government commissioned RAND to collaborate on a study of the labor market with the Institute for Labour Studies (ILS) of the Mongolian Ministry of Labour. Using a supply-demand framework, this study analyzed the Mongolian labor market to identify where it is performing well, where it is underperforming, and whether there are constraints to improvement. RAND and ILS especially focused on youth labor and education issues, using a new survey developed by the two organizations. The ILS and RAND teams chose this focus because of the importance of youth labor-market success to the economic future of the country and because analysis of Mongolian labor data showed relatively high rates of youth not in school or the labor market compared with a variety of other economies, including other similar transition economies. The Mongolian Ministry of Population Development and Social Welfare has recognized this importance by announcing 2015 as the year of youth development. The ILS-RAND Mongolian Youth Survey is a nationwide survey that provides new insights into the challenges faced by youth, as well as their achievements and aspirations, to inform the development of policy to address these concerns."--Back cover. 606 $aLabor market$xEmployment$zMongolia 606 $aYouth$xEconomic aspects$zMongolia 606 $aEducation$zMongolia 606 $aOccupational training$zMongolia 606 $aLabor & Workers' Economics$2HILCC 606 $aBusiness & Economics$2HILCC 607 $aMongolia$xEconomic conditions 607 $aMongolia$2fast 615 0$aLabor market$xEmployment 615 0$aYouth$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aEducation 615 0$aOccupational training 615 7$aLabor & Workers' Economics 615 7$aBusiness & Economics 700 $aShatz$b Howard J$0935274 702 $aGlick$b Peter 702 $aBeckman$b Robin L 702 $aConstant$b Louay 702 $aPérez Arce$b Francisco 702 $aGhosh-Dastidar$b Bonnie 702 $aRobinson$b Eric 702 $aHuang$b Haijing 712 02$aLabor and Population Program 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910220113403321 996 $aImproving the Mongolian labor market and enhancing opportunities for youth$92894736 997 $aUNINA
